Game of Thrones

[Tin Man]

Season 5, episode 5. GoT it.

Yup. Plus in a show only story line she locked Xaro and Doreah in the vault in Qarth. Considering it was medieval culture, I'll give her a pass for Xaro. He eventually revealed that he conspired with Pyat Pree to steal the dragons, murdering some of Daenerys' Khalasar in the process, as well as conspiring to murder the other 11 members of the 13 of Qarth.

Doreah though was only caught in bed with Xaro and she gets locked in the vault as well without even a trial or anything. Daerys even told her to whore herself out when they arrived in Qarth to see what info she could get, and yet Daenerys considered her guilty by association and sentenced her to a cruel death just for that.

They show you (and it may have been in the deleted scenes from that season) that Doreah was totally involved though. See here...

I've enjoyed it overall. I don't have issue with most of the plot points or story decisions. The real issue is the show needed more time to pull it off. And I'm not talking multiple seasons either. Like if we just had 2 extra episodes, that would make a world of difference in terms of character development. That's the reason some of this has felt unsatisfying; you're missing that setup. It's like we got out appetizer, had a couple bites of the main dish and then skipped straight to desert. Last season was a bit like that as well. Like imagine if in those extra episodes we got some additional scenes of Dany failing to make in roads with the Houses of Westeros and you can slowly see her blood starting to boil as she realizes people aren't just going to accept her rule just because she's there. Or if we had scenes that show Jamie wrestling more with his decision to go back to Cersei. Or scenes showing Cersei plotting her defenses, fitting the Iron Fleet with Scorpions and planning the attack that ultimately took down Rhaegal.

It's the pacing that's been the real problem and what's sad is, it really wouldn't have taken much to fix it. If the last two seasons would have been full 10 episodes seasons just like the rest, I'd wager most all the stuff people are bitching about now would have been addressed in a way that would be satisfactory. People still might like the overall plot outcome, but at least the details would have been there to back it up

Great points. I definitely agree.

The scene was deleted and may or may not be considered canon for the show. I'm willing to assume that it is. Daenerys still didn't know about it though.

Dragonball Z sucked.

 

[Innermind]

What's with you youngsters and the Dragon Ball Z crap?

Back in the '60s, us kiddies had it much better with shows such as Thunderbirds.

 

[PatsFan2003]

This is my thought and what I predicted (and many others) few pages ago. Bitter sweet ending, he kills her but not to take the throne.

I wouldn't be terribly surprised if show ends with someones eyes turning blue and creating need for nights watch again.


Not sure what happens to Drogon.

Someone, Arya? feeds him a poisoned sheep. or Bronn does it this time with his magic crossbow

Someone, Arya? feeds him a poisoned sheep.

how the fuck do you poison a fucking sheep you fucking moron?!?

 

[PatsFan2003]

how the fuck do you poison a fucking sheep you fucking moron?!?

Assume a sheepherder and jam a huge bag of poison down the sheeps throat.. Or jam it up the sheep's butt.

Just like a drug mule.

Be in the middle of no where so the Dragon can feast on the flock for a snack.

wouldn't the poison kill the sheep?

how can you be sure him torching the sheep wouldn't counteract the poison?

this is a bad plan

just have the guy who can take over animals minds do something

Eh. No more unreasonable than half of what's gone on in the series.

The poison would be in a bag ala a drug mule.

Very doable for the story..

It's too creative for these writers. You have to think like a 12 year old.

"we get this sheep to swallow this burlap sack full of poison, so it doesn't get into it's bloodstream!"

Or it fails to work and the dragon is shitting diarrhea all over the city while torching everything. Now that's TV worth watching!

That's why Arya is the faceless trained assassin and you're not!!
